Tiger Protectors #1

A Tiger's Bounty

Rate this book
This bounty hunting tiger has a curvy girl in his sights…

Jace is tall, dark and handsome. He’s also a super rare tiger shifter, with orange eyes and a keen sense of justice that has him constantly on the hunt for the worst criminals in the shifter world. When a particular case brings him in contact with a beautiful, vulnerable woman needing rescue, he has no choice but to step in and offer protection. But the longer he spends time with Amber, the more he isn’t sure he can ever let her go. And that’s dangerous for a man in his position.

Amber never expected to be in this situation. An average woman working on her degree in special education, she has no idea who would kidnap and target her. She only knows that the hot, leather-wearing man who rescued her and is now guarding her is the sexiest thing she’s ever seen. And somehow, he seems to want her too. If only he wasn’t holding back so many secrets, maybe they could actually have a chance…

As Jace and Amber work to discover who is behind it all, they find themselves drawn closer, into hot kisses and hotter nights. But as much as Jace is coming to realize that Amber might be his mate, he also knows his life is too dangerous for someone as precious as her to be in it. Somehow he has to stay focused and keep them both safe, even if the only target he truly wants to capture is her heart.

This one never really pulled me in.........

Im a huge fan of this writer, and have loved her previous books, but this one just fell a bit flat for me. Don't get me wrong, it wasn’t bad by any means. I just never really connected to the characters. The relationship between the hero and heroine just had a generic feel to it. The plot never had me anticipating how things would play out. To sum it up in one word, Id say I found this book to be DULL. I will still read just about anything this writer publishes and will likely even give book 2 in this series a try. I just wasn’t a fan of this particular read.

Ms. Terry is awesome. Tiger's Bounty is as captivating as every book that I have ever read. Jace & Amber are unique characters that draw you in from the beginning. You want to know more and more of their story to try and piece together the hidden words unspoken between each other. A sexy strong man is always on order and Terry never disappoints.

Tough tiger bounty hunter for the city enforcer dragons is brought down by a curvy little college gal. Not that Jace was willing to admit it to himself let a lone to Amber. But keeping it to himself might just be harder than capturing the toughest criminals.

Amber has little self esteem where men are concerned. She long since learned that while she may accept her soft curvy self, most men prefer model thin females. When she wakes up with gorgeous, built, sexy, hot....guy she can't believe the heated looks he gives her. And now she has to stay with him until they are sure she is safe. Oh, darn!

Rescuing her is one thing, not that he wouldn't like to do more--much much more--but his life isn't conducive to sweet young things. Still, she was in trouble, he didn't know why she was tied up in the apartment where he'd come to take down his next target, but he couldn't leave her.

Their battle to ignore the heat and real feelings is sometimes sad, but always hot. Make sure you have plenty of ice water when you read this one, turn up the AC and enjoy the steam.

I was excited to meet his brothers who are just as hot in their own unique ways and can't wait for their stories. They have to have stories, right Ms Bolryder? This is a very strong recommend--do not miss it. I was provided and ARC for an honest review.

This book was seriously small but a very good read. I love Amber and Jace, they were prefect for each other. Amber is just a college women that has big dreams about becoming a special needs teacher that is pulled into something much bigger. Jace a tiger shifter bounty hunter for the dragons. He is on a mission to collect Brenner, a wolf shifter that is wanted. Once he found his guy, he found Amber and the rest you have to read on your own.

I read this book as part of a box set which I own.

Jace is a bounty hunter whose bounties are shifters. When he is sent to retrieve a certain wolf shifter who murdered his alpha, he is surprised to find a young woman unconscious in a back room. Deducing that she had been drugged and brought to the apartment for nefarious purposes and since she has no ID on her, Jace takes her home with him.

Amber wakes up in a strange place with no idea how she got there. When a huge, handsome man brings her breakfast and then walks out of the room, she isn't afraid of him but she wants answers.
Once he tells her how and where he found her, he offers to take her home. Unfortunately, her apartment has been vandalized and Jace was sure wolves had done it in retribution. He offers her protection and a place to stay. He is falling for her, but he knows his lifestyle is not suitable for a mate. And how does he tell her he is a tiger shifter?

I really liked this story. The action in the book began right off. Jace Cunningham is a tiger shifter. He is a bounty hunter hired mostly by the dragon shifter to find and arrest criminal shifters. He is after Brenner a wolf shifter and when he finds him and his partners. He also finds a beautiful human woman named Amber.
Amber is a college student who was out with her friends at a club. The last thing she remembers is her friends leaving her alone at the club. Jace rescues her and takes her back to her home but her home has been ransacked. Jace needs to find out why and to keep her safe. In all of this Jace is also fighting about his own feelings for her.
The book was good and the author did a good job of developing the characters with people you care about.

Jace really enjoyed his job, a bounty hunter for dragons

Jace was making yet another job complete. His tips brought him to an older apartment building. Taking out the trash, as it may be was just another perk of the job. Many underestimated him, a rare species; a tiger in the shifter world. After finishing off the bad guys, he hears a faint whimper; female. He investigates, finding a beautiful woman passed out. Amber just wanted to go out with her friends to a club, no harm in that. What happens isn't what she expects. She wakes up in a man's bedroom, but fully dressed and she smells food cooking?? Interesting, she pads out of the covers and finds the source. Her new adventures begins.

A love story between a tiger shifter bounty hunter and a human woman in trouble in the shifter world. Jace doesn't think he deserves a mate because of his dangerous work and he must change his views when finally meeting the perfect mate for him when rescuing Amber. And Amber needs more self-confidence to believe in true love. Read how they face danger together and overcome their reservations in order to find their life together.

This was a fast paced, sexy, quick read for me. I liked both the lead characters. I do feel like not a whole lot happened though. There was the initial issue when they first meet, then sex, sex, sex, a little upset when she moves in with her friend, a small and quick fight with bad guys, sex, sex, meet the family, and then the end. I'll continue with the series since they are quick to read.

4 STARS

I have to be honest, I am reading Ms. Bolryder's series out of order, but after reading this one, I am so happy to see true world building. Although the storyline was simple (i.e. as a reader, you can follow the map from point a, to point b), I didn't feel there was anything lacking, especially as this was the first book in the series.

A Tiger's Bounty

Terry has written another great book. Jace is a bounty hunter looking for a wolf shifter that has murdered his Alpha. When he finds Brenner, he also finds an unconscious woman. She has been drugged. He takes her back to his bunker to find out more about her. Amber and Jace are mates and there are a few bumps along the way to their HEA.

A Tiger's Bounty

Tigers, Dragons or Bears whatever Terry Bolryder writes about, you definitely know it's going to be a good story. It will keep you interested and involved until the end, then keeps you wishing there was more. Definitely an author who knows what it takes to keep the reader interested.

Tiger shifter - yum

I haven't read many tiger shifter stories, but the ones I have - including this one - are pretty awesome. Tigers seem to be on the top of the food chain. Strong and regal. Not to mention deservedly arrogant. I rather liked Jace. He may have been a touch arrogant, but he was also self sacrificing. A very nice combination.

Jace is a bad boy tiger shifter, Amber is human and knows nothing about shifters until she meets Jace after being kidnapped and all Jace knows is this gorgeous curvy woman needs his protection and he can't keep his hands off her lol.

I liked the story, however the heroine's lack of self confidence and self worth made her a little lame. The whole "why would a guy like me", got old quick. Okay read enough that I will read more of the series.

Gostei muito do livro, achei uma história interessante, apesar de em alguns momentos achar que tudo acontece muito rápido e algumas coisas não foram bem explicadas. Mas como esse é o primeiro de um série nos próximos podem estar as explicações ausentes nesse!

I love tigers, always have and always will. This book was delightful and Jace was a bad boy who would bring you to your knees in a heartbeat. I am looking forward to reading about Jace’s brothers. I love Terry Bolryder, her dragon shifters are amazing and her Tiger’s don’t disappoint either!

Love finds Jace from Mountain Lion (Bear Haven #4). Tiger don't take no mess in his quest to find out who's trying to hurt an innocent young woman. I like how the books are intertwined. I know Carter's story is already out. Let's get Kel a lady love as well and all will be complete.

As a shifter book goes it’s pretty good and what you’d expect. I did enjoy the book but it is what you would expect from Terry Bolryder I am certainly liking the tigers though you don’t often get to read much about them!
Recommend to those that love shifter books with hot sex!

Fantastic

Loved this book, touched my heart . Amber’s insecurities reminded me a little of my own! Would have been great to have found someone like Jace to carry my heart through life just a little jealous! Still beautiful story thank you for the pictures in my mind!
